About Donvale Early Learning Centre
Established in 1996, Donvale Early Learning Centre has been providing quality care for over 25 years in an inclusive, multicultural and diverse environment.
Our highly qualified and experienced team provides best practice education focused on STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics).
For many children this will be their first time away from family and they need to feel secure in their new surroundings. Our educators work closely with parents to ensure a happy and smooth transition. We pride ourselves on the quality of our care and the warm learning environment we provide.
A Highly Qualified Team
We have 5 Bachelor and Master degree-qualified staff across the management and teaching team. Our staff participate in regular networking and professional training courses to ensure your children benefit from the most relevant teaching practices.
3 and 4 Year Old Funded Kindergarten Programs
Our 3 and 4 year old funded kindergarten programs are delivered for 37.5 hours each week (well above the 15 hours per week standard) to provide more time for progressive play-based learning experiences that prepare children for the school years ahead.
Bilingual Kindergarten Program
As the language of choice voted by the majority of parents, we deliver a Bilingual Kindergarten program for children in the 4 year old kindergarten room for 12 hours each week. In addition to embracing the multicultural community that we operate in, learning an additional language can also help to improve children’s cognitive flexibility and problem-solving skills.

My daughter joined Donvale ELC's 3-year-old room at the beginning of this year. She initially experienced separation anxiety and had a very hard time settling in. However, the teachers were incredibly patient and caring — they encouraged her gently and even prepared Hello Kitty dolls and stickers (her favorite!) to help her feel more at ease. Now she absolutely loves going to kinder. Every morning, she puts on her school bag and says she wants to go see her teachers and friends. She comes home every day excited to share fun stories from her day and has made many good friends. We've seen real growth in her — she’s learned to share and is becoming more caring toward others. I’d especially like to highlight Anna Lee and Reina. They are not only professional and warm with the kids, but they also take time to communicate clearly with parents. Every time we pick up our daughter, they patiently share updates about her day, which gives us great peace of mind. Highly recommend this ELC — thank you for creating such a loving and supportive environment for our little one to grow!
